When Amber Dyson and her family moved into the new house, they soon discovered something odd in the kitchen. The room was warm...

...and toasty, except for a slender shaft of cold air near the sink. No one could figure out where the beam of cold air came from...

...Amber's family learned to step around the cold air. One morning, she sat at the counter. She watched her mother step into the beam...

...of cold air. Amber heard a THWOCK. Like something being sucked into a vacuum cleaner hose. To her horror, the air seemed to part...

...Her mother stepped into the hole and vanished. The hole closed. Amber screamed. She ran to the beam of cold air. But it was only air...

Amber's mother was gone. Her father and brother came running. They were overcome with grief. They didn't want to admit what they knew...

The air shaft was a doorway to another time. Grief stricken, they sold the house to a nice family with three kids. "This house is...

..."perfect," the new owner said. When the Dysons moved out, they wished the new family good luck. But they didn't tell them...

...about the small problem in the kitchen.
